Abstract excerpt
Production of interleukin-2 (IL-2) by human T-lymphocytes can be augmented by costimulation via CD28. It has been reported that signaling via CD28 acts by stabilization of lymphokine mRNAs (Lindsten, T., June, C. H., Ledbetter, J. A., Stella, G., and Thompson, C. B. (1989) Science 244, 339-343). Here we demonstrate that costimulation via CD28 also provides a signal which activates transcription of the IL-2 gene A...
